Hi Ron, I am very impressed with your cameras and the technique of your focusing mechanisms. You have given me some great ideas. If you want, check out my site. I will be posting some new pics soon of my camera's. http://www.geocities.com/mpc1968us/MPCPhotography.html Thanks for your help Ron. Always nice to find others with the same love for photography.
